The Nihilist

First, he kills his wife and gets away with it, then he gets arrested for killing a girl who doesn’t die.
I know, it sounds crazy, but trust me, it all makes sense.

Imagine failing at everything; marriage, job, life itself. Top it off with a nagging wife no one could stand. Instead of killing yourself you kill her.
Hey, I get it.
Now, I probably wouldn’t, but our Buddy, Ralph did just that. And he got away with it…for a while anyway. Then he goes and gets arrested for attempted murder on this hooker he meets on a boat. Crazy night.
Oh, and he gets $500 Grand in life insurance.
Anyway, the cops get him for trying to kill the hooker. But the hooker rats out our buddy, Ralph for the wife kill.
Ironic, isn't it? He gets busted for the murder he didn’t commit.
